Who is George Cottrell, the mystery donor who has potentially landed Nigel Farage in hot water?

Nigel Farage, the leader of Reform UK, is facing scrutiny after it was revealed he received financial support from George Cottrell, an aristocrat previously convicted of fraud in the US. The funds, reportedly used for social media staff and personal security, have led Farage to claim he's a victim of an "establishment hit job." This comes on the heels of earlier controversy over Farage's failure to disclose a £5m gift from a crypto billionaire. The situation raises questions about transparency and the origins of political funding.
